Often people have unwanted fats merely in one part. Prominently, that part is arms. It all depends upon one’s determination that how he or she converts that fat into glamourous muscles. If one wants strong and well-defined arms, there is no perfect time or month. Stop being influenced by any stereotype. Get up & start from today.

Here are some arm-sculpting tips to gain mass in your biceps and triceps or build bigger arms in no time:

1):- Use the full range of motion: Lifting up through the wide & entire range of motion comfortably permitted by the joint is the ladder to success to working the most target muscle fibres every exercise. This means fully extending & flexing the elbow joint with every rep- whilst maintaining tension well in the target muscle.

2):- Weight v/s form: One has to utilize sufficient weight to stimulate growth in the muscle & let for the right form to be maintained. Ideally one wants a challenging & tough weight for the target amount of repetitions that doesn’t cause the lifting tempo or technique to breakdown. We hammer home the worth of technique, but keep in mind that we all require to lift heavier over time to continue making great progress, or putting inches on those guns / our arms!

3):- Periodisation & failure: Starters are going to make progress with some good session, or single repeated training week, after at least 4-6 weeks. For those folks who are wishing to continue to make gains, varying often rep ranges & lifting protocols is best. Doing rotation weekly between differing lifting protocols, with overall weekly target, is good practice.

4):- Exercise set up & posture: A stable base is necessary for a good quality set & proper posture throughout workout or exercise. One must always aim to have his or her feet flat on a solid surface (not a on any mat) with at least a shoulder width apart. There must be slight bend in the knees (right angles if seated), neutral spine & neck, stable shoulders level & eyes looking straight forward. One must be careful that one or both of his shoulders don’t bunch up towards the neck, & the back doesn’t unduly round or hunch.

5):- Total volume: The advice here is to enhance the overall volume. For that, one must move away from merely one big arm session each week & perform two or three shorter arm sessions instead. An example here is training arms alone one day of each week, but training biceps after/with back & triceps after/with shoulders as well. This means overall volume is going to increase, but  likelihood of any injury or undue muscle damage is lessened as one’s volume is spread out.

6):- Injury prevention: Warming up is very important; 5 to 10 minutes of rowing/cross-trainer & dynamic stretches for one’s shoulders, wrists, chest, & elbow mobilisation is suggested. It is not difficult to jar the shoulder, get tennis elbow, or damage the wrists going so heavy so soon. In reality, all warm up sets of some decreased weight, for like some 15 repetitions are a good practice before utilizing the working-set weights.

7):-  Advanced training techniques: As one’s muscles become much more conditioned & resistant to fatigue, one needs to incorporate some new training methods & routines into his arsenal- merely lifting in the 8-12 repetition range will not give results forever. Techniques like ‘strip sets’ & partner assisted negatives are perfect, & the infamous 6-12-25 routine is going to leave one with an insane pump.

8):- Nutrition: Getting one’s nutrition right is at the top of the list if one wants to build bigger arms. When one is lifting weights in the gym one is actually not building new muscle, one is damaging & breaking down his or her old muscle. The muscle usually grows in the 48 hours (this period can be bit longer or shorter varying from one to another individuals) proceeding his workout. We suggest to eat the majority of your carbs in the pre & post workout meals, combined with some good quality protein source. This assures we gets enough energy for a great workout & can recover properly.
